    Below is a link to a vid on You Tube of Zorba the Greek being played live in the street. The video effects get a little annoying, but the performer is very good, and the sound is exemplary.

    The video effects are indeed annoying, but what's interesting is that this is a Romanian zouk made by Hora. It has the inlaid scratchplate that is left off the ones sold by Dave Kilpatrick under the Troubadour name, but it's otherwise identical. Still has the stock bridge, too, which I've replaced on mine. Intriguing to see that this guy picks it right at the bridge, to get that metallic tone. Big sound for such a cheap instrument!
